Leo (July 23 – August 22)
You're strongest when standing in the spotlight, so take it! All planets are moving direct, making it an excellent time to take a big leap forward. Throughout the month, the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars move through your opposite sign, Aquarius. As a result, your inner critic might creep out from the shadows and beg you to dim your light. Will you feed the creative urge pulsing in your heart? Let's hope so!
The Aquarius New Moon on February 9 could introduce a new chapter in your love story, whether you're partnered or single. Mars enters Aquarius on February 12 in your 7th house of partnerships, and Venus meets Pluto in your relationship sector for a seismic change in partnerships on February 17. These influences spice up your Valentine's Day plans with unexpected twists. Be careful of projections and avoid taking things personally. The influence of Pluto allows for the revelation of truth. On February 21, love requires decision-making.
Let yourself be motivated by the Aquarian energy and prioritize friendships. If you are willing to share, you can expand your social circle, especially on February 5, when Mercury conjoins Pluto.
Right after the Sun enters Pisces on February 18, Mercury joins it on February 22, illuminating imaginative and compassionate conversation that softens the cold Aquarian edge and allows you to open your heart for deep conversations and intimacy.
We close the month out with a shift from love to money, with the Virgo Full Moon on February 24. What do you need to budget for to have the funds to be your biggest, boldest self? Harness that Virgo energy to help you cut unnecessary expenses that detract from your ability to shine.
